Beware of Whitening Toothpastes

Do you know that some toothpaste brands will not only make your teeth brighter but will also ruin your clothes when they make contact with your garments? That’s because these new tooth whitening products are such effective bleaches that when they splatter onto your clothes they can remove the color!

A word to the wise: be very careful about brushing your teeth with whitening toothpaste after you put on a nice dress or a colorful top. When bleach touches your shirt, it is almost impossible to restore the color after the bleaching takes effect.
